Principal's Message

As we settle into the new school year, I want to thank our families for the positive start and for the trust you place in Turlock Junior High School.

Junior high is an important time of growth. Students develop greater independence, discover new interests, build relationships, and prepare for the opportunities and responsibilities ahead. At TJHS, we are committed to providing a safe and supportive learning environment while maintaining high expectations for academics, behavior, and character.

We are proud of the progress our school continues to make. This year, our focus remains on strengthening instruction, providing effective supports through our Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS), promoting student wellness and attendance, and creating opportunities for students to participate, lead, and connect with our school community.

Families are an important part of that work. I encourage you to stay connected through ParentSquare and Aeries, attend school events, and join us for Tiger Talks, where parents can stay informed about our school, ask questions, and share their perspectives and ideas.  Your involvement and partnership help us better support our students.

At TJHS, Tiger Pride in Every Stride reflects our belief that meaningful growth happens one step at a time through consistent effort, shared responsibility, and continuous improvement. It also reflects the commitment that guides our work: Every Student, Every Action, Every Day.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support of Turlock Junior High School.

With appreciation, 

Agustin Arreola
Principal

It's a matter of pride.
